Review: Clear Nose Blackhead Remover from Thailand

Blackheads is one of the most common skin problem both by men and women alike. Even my boyfriend thinks so too! We even tried using different blackhead remover masks lately, it was fun but so far the results were not so impressive. In accordance to that for today I will review Clear Nose Blackhead remover.



What is it? 
Clear Nose which is also called Gel Hut Mun White is a white cream meant for removing both blackheads and whiteheads. It comes with a set of around 45pcs of paper. I seriously haven't seen much reviews about this product yet so here we go.


 Packaging 
Since it came in a small plastic bottle, I was thinking that it should also come with a spatula or something, but I can't complain. This stuff is pretty cheap already. I just shake it well before getting some product using a q-tip. Not on pictures it has a protective plastic lid inside to keep the product from spilling and drying out. It also includes about 45 pcs of paper. I am not sure what kind of paper they are but they have vertical lines and a teeny bit smells like powder.


I am not so sure what is the ingredients though. The problem with most of the trending products right now is that it lacks english translations.

Experience 
The cream smells like a medicinal product, not minty but it kinda puts me to a mood like I want to sleep. We are not limited to our noses because we can also use it on other parts of our face as well. The product's ad shows really good results but I am not easily swayed by ads, hoho~

I have no high expectations because Clear Nose is cheap. I mean come on I've tried a lot already. When using this product make sure to shake the bottle first before application using a q-tip. Its not a very thick cream though, its still liquidy and drips easily. I was wondering why do they need to include paper, why not just make the liquid more like a cream like the normal blackhead removers?

Anyway just the same of course I tried it. I won't post photos of myself although I have it, the lighting at home is bad and I look awful lol. Just to compensate though the results is below, behold!



WARNING: Gross blackheads when zoomed!

Isn't that a lot?! I was very very amazed with the results and I cannot believe with how many blackheads it managed to get from my nose. Sorry for the gross photos, it was satisfying to see that it removed so much. All this time I was thinking blackhead removal is a big joke especially if I use commercially available nose packs etc, but Clear Nose Black Head Remover proved me wrong.

There are also fake Clear Nose as I've read from other users and it has a different kind of paper included. They say its more of glossy and it doesn't have the vertical lines like the real ones. The thing is, I am not sure how to tell if its effective or not.

How much and where to buy? 
There is no official shops for Clear Nose but there are a lot of this online, shop. The price ranges from from Php 80 above.

What I love 
  • Very affordable
  • Very effective in blackhead/whitehead removal
  • Scent is good
  • Peeling off doesn't hurt as much as other nose packs I've used
  • No itchy feeling after usage
What I don't 
  • Doesn't say ingredients
  • Lacks english translation 
TIPS
Shake well before using
You may use a q-tip or a small spatula to apply it to your nose

Will I repurchase? 
A big fat YES!!!

Overall~ 
Clear Nose Blackhead Remover (Gel Hut Mun White) deserves a round of applause for being very effective yet cheap. I seriously didn't imagine using a blackhead remover product which delivers amazing results. Where was Clear Nose all of this time?

Review: Pilaten Blackhead Remover

Happy Monday! God has let the blessings rain for a while lately, and with that I am thankful. 

Anyway for today will be a quick review about a trending product meant to address one of the most common skin problem of girls and boys alike: Pilaten Blackhead Remover. This product is all over facebook and buy & sell websites.


What is it?
A black gel meant to remove blackheads and whiteheads. This is obviously from China, no english translations for the ingredients. I was wondering what it contains? The instructions is in english though.

Instructions: After cleansing apply it evenly onto blackheads and wait about 30 minutes before tearing it off.



Packaging
I got it in sachet pack by 10's but I am not sure if they sell it in tubes.

Experience
I honestly just bought Pilaten Blackhead remover out of plain curiosity. The other product of Pilaten which is the Hair Remover cream is selling like pancakes which is why I got this also with my purchase. I have history of experiencing itchy skin when using nose strips.


To compare, the black gel of Pilaten is more liquidy compared to iWhite (well that was the last nose strip I've used). I had a hard time on applying it because it drips. It also takes a while to dry, like 30 minutes or so and I cannot do layers on the product to thicken it. Thicker product means easier removal later on. The scent is nice which I can't describe and there is no minty feeling while I had it on.

Soooo did it work? Sadly no. It did lift a few of my blackheads but I can count them with my fingers. Its not as effective as it claims to be.

How much and where to buy?
Online, cheapest is around P5 per sachet.

What I love
  • Scent
  • Minimize pores
  • Temporarily whitens
  • Cheap
  • Doesn't hurt when peeled off
  • did not break me out
What I don't
  • Doesn't effectively remove blackhead
  • No ingredient list
Will I repurchase?
No. There are better options out there.

Overall~
Not all trending products are good which is proved by Pilaten Blackhead remover. Since ingredients is not listed we can't be sure what is inside. I just ordered Clearnose Blackhead Remover so stay tuned for that. See you in my next posts!

>>Is it just me or facebook is loaded with too much sponsored posts lately?
Here is what I use to detoxify, Green Tea in a bottle! They also have Jasmine tea variant, which is also oishii~ (delicious) [photo is year old, sorry]
